The church of the Holy Spirit imposes by its dimensions and proudly rises, all of red dressed, on the market square. Between the end of the th and th centuries, it combines Gothic and Baroque styles. Under his frequent, slender and regular high warheads were once the Church's main treasures: burials of princes and the palatine library. The tombs were desecrated by French soldiers in 1693; only those of Ruprecht I and his wife remain. As for the rich library, it was transferred to Rome during the takeover of the city by General Tilly in 1623.

une ascension récompensée
L'édifice est vaste et très intéressant, notamment pour ses vitraux contemporains, mais il est également haut ! Dès l'entrée, un escalier en colimaçon mène vers le ciel d'Heidelberg. On monte là comme dans un phare et en haut, quelle récompense ! Un balcon fabuleux sur la vielle ville, les tours du vieux pont, le Neckar, et de l'autre côté le château, comme à portée de main ! C'est vraiment une visite prioritaire !!!
